MISCELLANEOUS.
All the Militia to Meet.

May, 1887, is to be an important
month in the history of the National
Guard of this country. 1t is pro-
posed to establish a great camp
near Washington, invite the militia of
euch State to send Representative COM
panies, and for a week or more keep
up a series of competitive drills and
an exhibition of military evolutions
in all branches of the service: S. e.
Wheatley is the Chairman of the COM
mittee having the matter in charge.
Gen. Albert Ordway is the Vice
Chairman. Already great cores
pondence has been carried on in the
way of stirring up interest and re-
plying to the inquiries from all parts
of the country. There is $50, 900
guarantee fund subscribed by citi-
zens of Washington, and already as
surances have come from the Ma
tional Guard of at least twehty-nine
States of the Union that these several
commonwealth will be represented.
The programme with details has
not yet been issued, but it has been
decided to have prize list amounting
in the aggregate to S26, 500, with
standard guidons, medals in gold,
silver and bronze, with silver trophies
for armory decoration. The distribu-
tion of the prizes shows 81 800 for
battalion prizes, $40, 500 to infantry,
So, 800 to cavalry, $4,000 to light
artillery mounted, 81, ,250 to machine
gun platoons, 81 ,75Otozouaves, 81, ,750
to cadeta-corps from schools and
UNIVERSITIES, S225 Tor excellence IN
individual drill and S525 for rifle
practice.
The idea is to establish high pre-
cedent for this sort of display, to
work up strong feeling of cumulative
zeal and to arouse the esprit de corpse
everywhere to the highest pitch, and
it is expected that each company
attending will go home, whether win
ners of losers in the several competi-
tions, with enlarged notions of what
the militia of this country is and may
become. 1t is intended that the mem
bers of Congress shall see what a
force the citizen soldiery of the Uni
ted States may be if properly treated
as to appropriations and legislative
encouragement.

Not few of the citizens of Charles
town have recently become greatly
excited over the astounding facts, that
several of their friends who had been
pronounced by their physicians as in
durable and beyond all hope-suffer-

sumption-have been completely
cured by DR.. Kings New Discovery
for Consumption, the only remedy
that does positively cure all throat
and lung diseases, Coughs, Colds,
Asthma and Bronchitis. Trial bottle

ISscR1PT1oN on AN ANCIENT BED
a medieval ballad there
is mention made of {" the four gospel
ers on the four pillars, and heads Of
angels all of one mold" The invo-
cation still in use in some of the En-
glish country places Is an echo of
this old custom:
"Matthew, Mark, Luke and John,
Bless the bed that sleep on.
Two angels at my head,
Four angels round my bed;
Two to watch and to pray,
And two to carry my soul away"

HONEY IN ASTHMA, ETC.-It is said
that those who have suffered intense
ly from asthma have found almost in
stant relief from a single teaspoonful
of warm honey. A professor of med
icine has declared that honey dis
turbs the formation of fungoid
growths, and has, therefore, been of
great use as preventive of thrush in
babies. 1t is also claimed that an
ointment made of honey and flour is
an excellent remedy for boils. The
medical authorities claim that its in
ternal use cannot be too highly praised.

STARVATION THEOLOGY.

A writer in the Congregdtiondlist lately
intimated that the orthodox church at
North Adams had been almost starved
by the platitudes of sentimental and
unscientifc theology, referring evident
ly to the ministrations of Rev. L. T.
Munger, and added that a pastor of
'sound orthodoxyof the Princeton type
was settled" as his successor. Where
upon, the deacons and church commit
tee of the North Adams church, eight
in number, unanimously joined in a
letter, saying, ''In justice to Mr.. Mum
ger and ourselves, we wish to say
through you that we were not starving
upon his preaching, and that the teach
ing of our present pastor satisfies us,
not in proportion as it is unlike, but in
proportion as it is like, that of Mr..
Munger" Here is one orthodox church
that knows when it is well fed, and has
no idea Of going back to husks or carObs.
The vindicatioD of Mr.. Munger by
his former deacons is made still more
emphatic by letter from his successor,
Rev. John p. Coyle, who wishes to rid
his own name of the charge Of being a
theologian Of the Princeton type. Mr..
Coyle says: cit almost makes me gnash
my teeth to be referred to the sC-called
Princeton type in the customary way,
as though l were a disciple of DR..
Hodge, whose system (D starved me
into agnosticism. Princeton has alto
gether outgrown the thraldom of any
type; and THwarns those who are reach
ing out to her for men to maintain GER
tain fixed dogmas, that they are in dan
ger of overreaching themselves. A
tremendous amount of thinking is done
in Princeton, and no one man repre-
sents or controls it. OF the four Prince
ton men whom can at this moment,
with my limited acquaintance, recall as
occupying Congregational pulpits in
New England, not one belongs to any
party or is the follower of any 'ism,'
liberal or conservative, and not one
breaches the so-called Princeton type
of doctrine. Christian Register.
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1887-06-25

all his proofs failed to establish the end
lessness of punishment.
Quite an amusing coincidence is found
in that weeks issue OF The UNIVERSAL
IsT in the editorial allusion to the "out-
cry OF this particular infant" Mr.. Howe
made many appeals to sympathy, and
always to a mother with a baby in her
arms, go the editorial was the cause OF
much merriment to those who heard the
brothers psthos in that direction.
There was large attendance from the
first of the discussion, notwithstanding it
was busy season with the farmers Of
that community. AS the debate advanced
the interest increased until the crowds in
attendance were beyond the seating ca
pacity of the large Universalist church,
and the aisles were filled and people were
outdoors hearing the best they could at
the windows. Surely this was one dis
cussion in which good was done and no
evil results attending.
